Abstract
Abstract A method for the synthesis of functionalized piperidines containing 3 contiguous stereocentres in the 2-,3- and 4- positions uses a diastereoselective nitro-Mannich to control stereochemistry. The nitro-Mannich reaction between a β-aryl/heteroaryl substituted nitroalkanes and glyoxylate imine provides β-nitro-amines with good selectivity (70:30 to >95:5) for the syn, anti-diastereoisomers. Reductive cyclisation with BF3.OEt2 and Et3SiH gave, after purification, stereochemically pure piperidines in 19–57% yield for ten examples with different 4-aryl/heteroaryl substituents.
